This container 1 has the shape corresponding to the shape of a cylinder bore wall. Two containers 1 having such shape are prepared, and received in the water jacket in a state of surrounding cylinders arranged in series from both sides. The container 1 comprises a heat storage agent injection port 2 and an air-bleeding port 3 at its upper portion. The injection port 2 is connected to an injection pipe 5 extending from an injection tank 4 disposed at an upper part of the container 1. Sodium acetate trihydrate as the heat storage agent is stored in the injection tank 4. Thus the heat storage agent can be injected into the container 1.
